 REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
 
 During the year under review the Company could achieve turnover of Rs.
 9,564.20 Lacs against Rs. 11,416.56 Lacs of previous year. The
 reduction in turnover is mainly due to the lack of cooperation from a
 section of employees who eventually resorted to an illegal strike. This
 has significantly affected sales in a crucial fourth quarter. During
 the year orders from oil companies also reduced drastically. Sales of
 other products have been at par with previous year. Though there is
 reduction in turnover, profit before tax of Rs. 71.63 Lacs is achieved
 against Rs.122.98 Lacs of previous year.
 
 FINANCE
 
 The cost of finance has continued to increase in the year under review.
 The Reserve Bank of India''s maintenance of high lending rates for
 financial institutions coupled with a lower turnover and corresponding
 realisation from receivables during the year, has kept your company''s
 liquidity position under tremendous pressure. Directors are making
 every effort to control costs by better working capital management to
 the extent possible and expense reductions.
 
 DIVIDENDS
 
 The year under review has generated a net profit of Rs. 71.63 Lacs. The
 Board felt it appropriate to defer recommendations of any dividend till
 adequate profits are made to clear the deficit in the Profit & Loss
 Account, (P.Y. Nil).
 
 SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
 
 Intel Instruments & Systems Limited
 
 Intel Instruments & Systems Limited, the export subsidiary at SEZ
 recorded turnover of Rs. 262.82 Lacs during the year as against
 Rs.370.21 Lacs during the previous year. The operations for the year
 have resulted in a loss of Rs. 252.71 Lacs as against loss of Rs. 88.75
 Lacs in the previous year.  The company is evaluating cost cutting
 measures and retrenchment programmes to bring the company back to
 profitability.
 
 Sprylogic Technologies Limited
 
 Sprylogic Technologies Limited, the IT subsidiary recorded turnover of
 Rs. 165.62 Lacs during the year as against Rs.184.14 Lacs in the
 previous year. The operations during the year have resulted into a
 profit before tax of Rs. 7.01 Lacs as against profit before tax of
 Rs.5.72 Lacs during the previous year.
 
 AUDITORS REPORT
 
 Your Directors would like to invite your attention to paragraph 2 and 6
 of the Auditors Report and clarify as under:- Due to inadequate
 turnover Intel made a loss of Rs.  252.71 Lacs for the year under 
 review as against loss of Rs. 88.75 Lacs in the previous year. The 
 Directors are making efforts to improve the performance in coming years, through cost cutting, increasing
productivity and increasing sales. 
 Exposing Intel''s products to foreign countries where specifications 
 and quality standards are stringent brings some indirect benefits to 
 Aplab.  This enables Aplab to use latest technology for domestic 
 market and keep Aplab ahead of the competitors.

 employees leaving the Company on superannuation or otherwise. As on
